Sora - A Digital Library
Families can now read and listen to books on their home computers, mobile devices and eReaders. All you need to get started is an internet connection and your child’s student number. The York Region District School Board has a paid subscription to Sora, a digital library that lets students borrow ebooks and audiobooks anytime, anywhere.
To access the Sora digital library on a Windows or Mac computer you must login through the website at https://soraapp.com/library/yorkregionca. On Android, Chromebook, iPad, Kindle Fire, or Windows 8/10 devices you will access the ebooks through the Sora app, which you will need to download (for free). How-to guides and videos are available to support you on the website.
Here are the steps to access Sora:
Sign in with “0(student number)”
Borrow a book
Go to your Checkouts page (under your Account). From there click the Read or Listen button to open the book in your browser.
You can borrow two ebooks at a time. You can place up to three “holds” on a book at a time, which reserves it for you when it gets checked back in. Borrowed books will automatically be returned at the end of the lending period (7, 14 or 21 days). You can also return titles early to get access to a new title.
